Reagan @ 3 months old

Reagan is now THREE months old. Time seems to fly by so much faster than when Bo was a baby. I guess that is what happens when you are also chasing around a very active two year old.

Weight: About 11 lbs maybe??
Size: She fits almost perfect in her 3 month tops. Her pants are still way too long, but it's still too warm for pants here.

Likes:being outside, riding in the stroller, bath time, the swing, being talked to, riding in the car, music, getting her diaper changed, Bo, being the center of attention, blowing bubbles, chewing on her fingers, Mommy, Daddy

Dislikes: having a dirty diaper, tummy time, being left alone, napping, wearing socks and pants

Milestones: smiles, laughs, rolls over from tummy to back, grasps objects, drools, blows bubbles

Bo loves her so much. He always wants to know where she is and what she is doing. If she is napping, he has to wake her up so she can play. She is generally not amused and gives a great frustrated face. He loves to play trucks with her and she is pretty tolerant most of the time. It is so cute to watch him interact with her. She is just starting to figure out he might be a fun guy to be around. Until he Hulk smashes her. Thanks Uncle Josh!

Adventures: Branson, an airshow, ran a 10k, play group, gymnastics, story time, the park, the swimming pool, the movie theater, outlet mall

Nickname: R-egg-ie, Baby Reagan

Reagan is such an easy going and happy baby. She doesn't mind getting carted along to play group or riding in the stroller for miles and miles. We love having her in our family and can't wait to see what she learns next.

We LOVE you Baby Reagan!!

Citrus Lane Box Review

A month or so ago, I got a coupon for a Citrus Lane Box. If you don't know what that is, it is a box of 4 products picked by parents for kids of all ages. The products for your box are picked based on your child's age. That way you don't get things that are too old or too young. I had heard quite a few good things about these boxes and even know a few people who get them every month. I figured we would try one and if we loved it we could subscribe for more months. Well...I didn't love it but didn't hate it. I don't think I would pay the full price of a box because I'm too cheap but for basically no money, it was worth it. Maybe we will try again when he gets a little older and has a longer attention span. He received a bodysuit, stacking boats bath toys, a Happy Baby Pouch, and Radish dish soap (for me). He got three products and I got one.

                                   



Bodysuit from Tea Collection. www.teacollection.com
The bodysuit is really nice. It retails from the website at $26.50. The colors are good and the fabric seems really durable. It will be great for the cooler days that are already here.

Fleet Stacking Boats Bathing Toys from Boon www.booninc.com

Bo really liked these boats.They retail on the website at $11.99. I have a hard time keeping him occupied in the tub. He likes to pull the plug and watch all the water go swirling down the drain. Bathtime usually lasts 5 minutes. After I gave him the boats, he played in the water for about 10 minutes before trying to pull the plug. He liked pouring water out of them and watching the water come out of the holes on top. I am sure he will continue to enjoy them as he gets older.

Happy Baby Pouch from Happy Family www.happyfamilybrands.com Retails about $1.79 depending on the store

Bo loves pouches. He immediately tried to open it up and carried it all around the house. We love taking them on trips or when we go to restaurants. I love the different combinations and knowing that he is going to get both fruits and veggies in one pouch. They are kinda messy when he insists on holding them himself, but he usually sucks it down fast enough that he doesn't make a big mess.

Radish Dish Soap from Mrs. Meyers www.mrsmeyers.com  The 2 ox trial size I received was $1. A 16 oz bottle retails for $3.99

I am still undecided on the dish soap. My favorite thing about it is the scent. I didn't think I would like radish, but it may be one of my new favorites. I am a big Dawn fan, so I was skeptical. It didn't suds up as much I would have liked but it did a good job getting the dishes clean and not leaving spots on my glasses. I only had one pan and it seemed to cut through the grease pretty well. Overall, I was very satisfied. It is sold at Meijer, Target, and Bed, Bath, & Beyond. I just might have to use my next BB&B coupon to buy some. I will definitely be looking for the scent. 

I was not compensated by any of these companies. I just wanted to give a review of what was in our Citrus Lane box, so you could try these products as well. It may also help give justification as to whether to sign up for the boxes or not. It was worth the money and Bo likes all the products he received. We are going to cancel our subscription for now but may be back in the future. We will definitely be eating Happy Family pouches and possibly buying radish scented dish soap.
